The Government says it is very pleased to note the decision this morning by the Chief Justice, Mr Justice Dudley, dismissing the claims made by former GSD Minister, Louis Montiel.
Opposition Leader Daniel Feetham has expressed his disagreement with the Governor’s recent statement that the New Constitution was an ‘overreaction’ to the failed Joint Sovereignty Talks.
A leaked civil service circular and some frank answers by Governor Sir James Dutton on GBC’s Talk About Town have sparked local press speculation on the emergence of a possible rift between the Government and the Convent.
The GSD says that it welcomes the news that the Government intends to continue with tunnel works across the runway.
The GSD has claimed that with ‘more fishing with nets in BGTW than ever before’ the Government ‘appear to be acting like rabbits caught in headlights over the fishing crisis.’
The party insists that it has been two years since the Government did away with the 1999 Agreement, but the Nature Protection Act also not being properly enforced.
